Adventure & Journeys Narrative Quick Writes | Co-Constructed Visual Writing Prompts | Years 3–6
20 stand-alone visual prompts that get students writing straight away. Prompts feature epic journeys and expeditions, unexpected destinations, unusual transport, travelling companions and surprising encounters, across natural, historical, contemporary, futuristic and fantastical settings. Each prompt can be used on its own and in any order.
The vocabulary and sentence starters are left for you and your class to build together, so every Quick Write fits your students and what you're teaching right now.
How Co-Construction Works
Each prompt has blank, editable spaces for three vocabulary words and one sentence starter. Before writing, you fill them in together with your class:
- Observe: students study the image and brainstorm ideas
- Build: together, choose three vocabulary words linked to the image or your current writing focus
- Launch: together, write a sentence starter
- Write: students write independently for five minutes
- Challenge: students use all three vocabulary words and keep writing for the full five minutes
Because nothing is pre-filled, you can revisit recent vocabulary, target your current grammar or writing focus, adjust the support for your class, or leave the spaces blank for more independence.
